Alcohol in Skincare -What Types are Good and Bad for You

ArianneUpdated on January 16, 2019January 16, 2019

Beauty Quickie: When it comes to alcohol in skincare products, do you know which ones are good or bad for your skin? Yes, not all alcohols are created equal or necessarily bad; even though, oftentimes alcohol becomes like a dirty word when it comes to skincare products.

Well, today we are going to change all of that for you. We are going to give you a comprehensive list of good as well as bad alcohols normally found in skincare items. Additionally, we will briefly you tell you exactly what they are capable of doing to or for your skin.

Alcohol in Skincare -What Types are Good and Bad for You

Do you want the good news or bad news first? Well, let’s get the bad out the way. Bad alcohols unfortunately zap and evaporate moisture from the skin and can irritate it. Yikes. Here is a list of baddies to avoid:

Alcohol
Alcohol Denat
Ethanol
Ethanol Alcohol
Denature Alcohol
Methanol
Benzyl Alcohol
Isopropyl Alcohol
SD Alcohol
SD Alcohol 40

Now for the good. The good alcohols you find in products can bring some benefit to your skin. They are actually “fatty alcohols” that work as emollients that are naturally hydrating and moisturizing. So then, if you could use a little help in the hydration department you will want to look for a product that includes at least one of the following:

Glycol
C12-16
Cetyl Alcohol
Stearyl Alcohol
Lauryl Alcohol
Cetearyl Alcohol
Myristyl Alcohol
Butylene Glycol
Propanediol

There you have it. The good and the bad. As one can see, it is always very important to know what is in your skincare products. Always check the ingredients list on the back to ensure your skin is being treated properly.

Facial Brush Benefits -Over 7 Reasons Why to Give it a Try

Arianne January 8, 2019January 8, 2019

Beauty Quickie: Ladies, hear us out for a second… Set aside your usual scrubs and pick up a facial brush. Why? Well, these babies have been shown to improve skin while eliminating several other common skincare problems all at the same time. Interested? Great, read on to learn over 7 facial brush benefits of this awesome beauty tool!

Facial Brush Benefits -Over 7 Reasons Why to Give it a Try

Our friends over at Yelle Skincare, the skincare brand by media mogul Yandy Smith, were kind enough to explain all the numerous facial brush benefits that there are to be had. In regards to the regular use of facial brushes Yelle Skincare reveals,

“A facial brush can be used on both your face and neck, and removes that top layer of dead skin to improve skin tone. This, along with it’s effects to stimulate circulation, will create firmer, more lasting skin. The result? Reduced wrinkles, soft, healthier skin and a massaging routine that makes for a relaxing end of your day.

Facial brushes are better than anti-aging creams. It works in the same fashion; peeling off dead skin to reveal the youthful glow beneath. But anti aging creams contain unnatural acids, which is why a facial brush is safer. So [then] in a nutshell, facial brushes produce fresh, young skin in the most affordable and natural way possible.”
